I was wondering if it would be possible to add an item to the Visual Studio error list? It is possible to do so from within an AddIn (like here), but I would like to do the same thing from a macro. Edit To further clarify what i want to achive, here is the sample from the Samples macro library (Alt+F8 -> Samples -> Utilities -> SaveView()) Sub SaveView() Dim name As http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5233970/add-item-to-error-list-in-macro String name = InputBox("Enter the name you want to save as:", "Save window layout") If (name = "") Then MsgBox("Empty string, enter a valid name.")

Just use the AddTaskToList method from that article and change m_objDTE to DTE. I've tried it and it worked. However, adding the item in Error List, is probably impossible. You need to call VS services, see how adding an error is done in an add-in. I created a ma
